After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 108 - This is Very Cheap

Chapter 108: Chapter 108 This is Very Cheap

Honestly, if it weren’t for all that messy business, she might have been willing to have a proper romance with Huo Shiqian.

But now, their beginning was wrong, their statuses were wrong, and the control over the beginning and end was entirely in his hands; she had already lost her right to equal speech.

A pat on her head, neither too light nor too heavy, brought her back to her senses.

She just heard him say indifferently, “Chuyi, remember, no matter where, you must write every single day.”

Look, just like now, every word from Huo Shiqian was an order.

Xia Chuyi blinked.

“But, uh, postage stamps are expensive, so are writing paper and envelopes.” She still wanted to struggle a bit over this matter.

Don’t look at how a few cents for a stamp or envelope, a few dimes for a stack of writing paper might seem trivial, but the daily cost of writing added up to a considerable expense.

Her store in the city hadn’t even opened yet, and here she was facing an additional everyday expense, which was certainly not cost-effective.

The patting on her head paused for a moment.

Silence hung in the air for two seconds.

“I’ll send you the postage stamps, envelopes, and writing paper.”

Meaning she still had to write.

Xia Chuyi pursed her lips.

Alright, she had anticipated this outcome.

But at least it would save her some money.

“Then okay, I’ll just respond to your letters.”

You write however much, I’ll write that much!

She thought with a sly smile.

Huo Shiqian’s movement paused again, clearly having read her inner monologue.

But in the end, he said nothing about it, just patted her head again and said, “Be good, wait for me.”

It was clear she had cried, her makeup was slightly messed up, with a subtle smoky look.

Her elegant aura was accompanied by a touch of decadence, giving her a unique beauty.

Back in the car, Liu Muxue’s expression calmed down, then she said, “Axing, take me back to the hotel.”

“Okay.”

Cao Xing nodded.

Just as he was about to start the car, everything suddenly went black.

Then, everyone heard a synthesized mechanical voice by their ears.

“The new version update of ‘Ice Seal Age’ is complete, officially opening the era of public testing. In a minute, all humans on Blue Star will enter this game.”

“Game instructions: This is a world where the sun does not shine. It is vast and boundless, but shrouded in cold all day. Your task is to survive in this world.”

“Once the game begins, you’ll appear next to a bonfire, your flame of survival. Remember! Do not leave the space illuminated by the firelight easily!”

“Uh, this watch, it looks even better than the Shanghai brand… Uh, I think it should probably…” Xia Chuyi carefully chose her words, but before she could finish, her hand was suddenly enveloped by his large palm.

“Keep it,” Huo Shiqian said, his expression unchanging, his tone calm and steady, “It’s not a purchased brand, it’s privately made, really not expensive.”

“…”

A private order from some brand… wasn’t that even more expensive?

She no longer needed to mince her words; Huo Shiqian was convinced that she wasn’t aware of international prices and planned to bamboozle her into accepting it.

And as a “village girl,” it seemed that indeed she shouldn’t know.

Great, she clearly received a gift, yet somehow felt aggrieved.
